Poetry
This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

How much would you pay to go to the moon?
An arm? A leg?
A day with Luna on Luna
What a day
Looking back at my beautiful blue gem
But, of course, human things cost more than I could ever pay
I wouldn’t use our methods though.
Haphazardly punching through the bubble that keeps us alive
We as a people are far too young for space travel
I wouldn’t go because it would just encourage other people to come behind me and ruin her
It’s just one more rock to destroy right?
They’d probably dig great holes in her
Like they do my gem
Try and harvest her insides because her outsides weren’t good enough
I’d rather they stay away from her
So I wouldn’t go
But what a day that would be
No comments on -
I suppose your opinion on this is paramount
After all you came in just as I was thinking of you
You sneak
As time goes on I wonder what your actual views on things are
You smell a lot like one of those neutrals
That think that by doing nothing in the face of oppression they’re somehow remaining just
You cannot allow oppression to occur and be clean handed
The blood of their oppression is on your hands
Bystanders are not innocent
If there was something to be done I would do it
Would you?

I don’t know what I should be doing right now
Fighting wars of opinion with civilians doesn’t change the death toll growing higher
Or the hit me once and I’ll bulldose you
By the way I have control of all of your resources and you can’t have them
This isn’t even an eye for an eye
This is tortured people lashing out and being tortured ten times worse for the pain of it
Some people think we’re supposed to give our predecessors the benefit of the doubt because they “didn’t know any better”
Am I to believe that some sort of genius has come over the population, now?
These are just the children of the colonial settlers, it’s not their fault!
But you see, I see it, perpetrated in my own society still
The “but it’s not their fault”
So what they perpetrate racism and black heartedness when it comes to indigenous peoples?
We just occupied the land and wiped them as much out as we could
I would comment on their strength and resilience
But that is not for someone on the outside looking in to do
It seems so meaningless to write this down
If I had any power I’d just make them stop
Hear their shared god in their heads
Do something why don’t you? Abrahamic god‽
Alas, like all times, this so called all knowing being is silent in the face of dying babies.
It’s like they’re children fighting over something Earth has an abundance of (land) and they’re just using the citizens as fodder.
When will these people wake up and see that these men want war?
Death?
Suffering.
These people you think are your leaders are hungry to push the buttons that ensure destruction
They claim they love the land while marring her surface with bombs and wiping out every living thing
Monsters run these things called nations
The people lap up the toxic filth that spews from the mouth of these things called leaders

I exclaim
God
I’m not cursing the god listening on the other end
More like
Are you seeing this?
Gods’ ineffectuality
Do you see?
Same with Jesus, or Christ
More like a
Check out this fucked up situation
Than a how could you do this to me?
Now, when I say universe!
That’s more of a how could you.
I always wonder who’s watching
There’s no way to know the untold number
But apparently the Sun is number one
Yes that tracks
I started thinking about what swearing means for me
Started looking at my language and how I use it
Using different words so it’s just a word for emphasis rather than hurt
It took seeing the way language is used to trick people into believing something
I want my language to be direct
Without doublespeak or hidden meanings
Unless I’m writing esoteric crap without any actual meaning
When I say genocide I mean it
And I communicate with my gods,
I don’t swear at them

Sometimes I forget I’m a warrior
Fighting every day to just be
Getting up from bed is a great feat,
One that I continue to achieve no matter how much my body pleas
Sometimes I forget that I’m fighting these thoughts
Sometimes I forget they’re not me
Chin up soldier
That should have pissed me off,
Why should I have to live and be a soldier and whatnot
What I felt instead was the warrior in me stand up
I’m a fighter
And I’m a damn good one
I wonder what the world would be like if everyone thought like me?
Would it be better?
Or just another hellscape?
They sleep
The warriors
No one sees the fight in me
No one sees me giving 100%, 100% of the time
If they knew how hard I’m fighting
Just to present as normal
It’s a battle of mind, body, soul, and spirit and it’s two against two.
Body and mind my enemies
Soul grows weary
Spirit cheers it back to life
I am a warrior
I just get so caught up in the fighting I forget
-
I hide here, safe
Waiting
There isn’t much to do while being killed by time
Waiting for it anyways
When the entire wide world is out there and I’m in
I wish I could see the world
But instead I just hide
In the same old music
Somewhere safe where I can know what comes next
I wonder if I could go even if I wasn’t broken beyond repair
If my body allowed it
It stings seeing people meeting up
I wish I could meet up
There’s nothing really here worth fighting for
That’s what the animals are for
Without them I’d have nothing
It stings to have been dealt this pointless life
No love story
No redemption
No climbing the ladder
Just stuck
And I am tired of living this life
At this point my death would be a favour to many people
But he said fight
I wonder why
I’m fighting, you know,
I just don’t know why
And have no hope
